Chapter 158: Poisonous words (1/2)

Sam's eyes were cold and full of malicious intent. He is like a wild beast out for blood.

Jim could almost feel as if he was struck in a beast's maw.

”SAM, you better let him go. Otherwise, you won't be leaving this place alive.”

General spark said in a cold voice.

Sam didn't even bother to look at him.

From what Sam understood, if even the Marquis can get the news that Sam cannot be touched, then the General would definitely know.

As for why these candidates can fight each other. That might have something to do with those people behind the scenes not placing any rules about the infighting between the candidates.

After all, they need the best person and the strongest is always the best in this world. If a candidate can outwit, outsmart and outplay another candidate that only proves that the loser is not capable.

This is just Sam's conjecture.

So, he is not afraid of the general at all.

Sam just looked at Jim whose legs are shivering.

”I..I su..rrender.”

”I am sorry Jim. I think you got something wrong here. This is a death match and the life of the loser is not in his hands, the winner decides and, in this case, I decide whether you get to live or die.”

Jim shivered in fright, but that only increased the pain on his hip.

Sam smiled ruthlessly as he said in a creepy voice.

”You are feeling helpless, right?

You are feeling the pain, right?

You are unwilling to end your journey like this, right?

But you have to go through this, do you know why? Because you involved in a matter you shouldn't have. You shouldn't have come to my camp and instigated the whole farce with Jian. Now, you are paying the price.”

When Sam said these words, Jim turned his head and looked at him with his eyes red in fury.

”Why are you looking at me with that hatred? I am not the one who led you into this. Remember, you told you to come and make trouble for me.

Remember why you even bothered to come and make trouble for me who doesn't even know you.”

Sam's words are like some directions pointed in a lost way. Jim involuntarily looked at General Spark.

General Spark felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what it is.

He stood up and shouted.

”SAM, let him go.”

But Sam didn't bother to reply. He continued. His words are as poisonous as a viper.

”Yes, he is the one. Your beloved teacher is responsible for this. Do you even know why he is targeting me?

Do you even know how we have this beef, when I came to this city for the first time?

Because of his grandsons.

Due to his grandsons' incompetence and jealousy, they complained to him and he is taking it out on me, but on whose expense?

You are just a pawn for this play.

He doesn't want to lose face, so he sent you to do all the dirty work but that is not the only reason, do you know why he sent you?

He could have just introduced his grandsons to the commanders and they would have asked them for the favours, but why did he choose you?”

When Sam asked these questions there is confusion mixed in the pain on his face.

General knew that situation is moving out of hand so he was about to make a move, but Deputy General stopped him.

”Move aside.” He barked coldly.

”General Spark, you said everything will be according to rules and everything is going on like that, Sam mentioned that this is death duel and it would be so no matter what.

Loser dying or living will be decided by the winner.

If you interfere now, I may not be able to stop you, but you also cannot stop me, if I make a move on your students.

If you break the rules, I will also do so.”

”HOW DARE YOU THREATEN ME?”

”General Spark, do you think I am afraid of you? I may not be your match now, but do you think you can kill me if I am hell bent on escaping? You seem to forget what I am good at.

And by the way, it is also unknown if I go all out, then I won't be able to grab you to hell with me.

You stayed in that pathetic Middle stage Novice for twenty years. And I might reach the same stage in less than three years. It is about time you stop putting yourselves on such high pedestal.”

General's face immediately sank, this is the cold hard truth and that is also one of the reasons that he suppressed the Deputy General before. He doesn't want latter to have any accomplishments, lest he would gather enough resources to surpass him.

”Are you sure you want to go against me like this for a brat?”

”I am pretty sure, as you said before I will do my duty to utmost capability to make sure that everything is going according rules.”
